Frick Museum

I'm a little late of a post, but better late then never.  I finally made my way to the Frick Museum on Palm Sunday.  It was amazing to visit such an amazing residence, a peak into a bygone era of New York. The foyer has a beautiful fountain and floral arrangements, which leads into the Dulwich exhibit.  Rembrandt is the most featured artist.  The layout is not typical, since it was home.  The exhibit rooms are broken down by region, Dutch, Italian, French, British etc.  It was interesting how they used the library, office, parlor, music and drawing rooms to exhibit the paintings.  It's mostly old world european paintings, which is not my cup of tea, but getting to see inside the Frick's home was amazing.
